I believe the UI spec details the configuration from the OpenSolaris  
2008.11 LiveCD - not the additional applications that you can install  
from the repository. Absolutely agree with you that any installed  
software should appear in the right positions in the menus, but I  
don't think the UI spec should necessarily document that.
